Pleasent
Pros:

The bed was comfortable and the room was clean

Cons:

Knowing how to check out would have been useful as well as the info that the pub closes at 8pm even on a Saturday night. There was no information should I have needed support overnight.

A towel to fit around an adult would also be appreciated as well as additional deadbolts on the door.

Shame as could be a lovely accommodation but wouldn't stay there again.
Pros:

The location was good. Rooms were in a block at the side of a friendly pub within a housing estate. Plenty of parking and a nice, quiet area. Décor of the rooms was nice, which is what attracted me to book this accommodation.

Cons:

On arrival, I got the keys to my room. I struggled to open the door, but once in, the door wouldn't lock. My room was on the ground floor of a two-storey block that opened directly onto a paved area, which looked like an extension of the beer garden at the pub. Not a problem during my stay, as nobody used this area; however, if pub customers were to sit there, they would be directly outside the room's door and windows. I asked the pub staff if I could change rooms and was told no because they were full. The gentleman came with me to my room to see what the problem was with the door, and he too couldn't lock it. After a lot of faffing around, we managed to get the door to lock. I was offered a free meal as compensation, but I declined it. The gentleman did say he would check if there was any availability to swap rooms for the following night, as I was scheduled to stay for 2 nights. I was disappointed with the bathroom; it wasn't clean at all. There were layers of dust on the skirting boards, and a lot of soap had built up in the bath and shower. The grouting in the tiles was black and dirty. The main room was pretty much the same, generally tidy with little to no evidence of a proper clean.
